If you consider yourself off-beat or simply want to get to know potential matches beyond a superficial level, reviewers say OkCupid can help you do that -- and for free. The site's extensive, unexpected matchmaking questions make it easy to glean insight into someone's personality, but you can still use traditional profile search criteria if you want to control your own destiny.
